HONORABLE SHEILA K. OBERTO, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED between the parties that the status conference scheduled for August 16, 2023, may be continued until December 6, 2023, at 1:00 p.m., before the Honorable Sheila K. Oberto. The government has produced discovery to Mr. Best's counsel. Mr. Best's co-defendant in this case has also scheduled a change of plea hearing for October 2023. Mr. Best's counsel has further investigation to perform. The parties agree that time under the Speedy Trial Act shall be excluded through December 6, 2023, in the interests of justice, including but not limited to, the need for effective defense preparation and defense investigation pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(7)(A) and 3161(h)(7)(B)(i) and (iv). The parties also agree that the ends of justice served by taking this action outweigh the best interests of the public and of Mr. Best to a speedy trial.
